Heading out to the Gorge this weekend to shoot my friend Marcus Eaton and also Dave Matthews. Marcus has a side-stage and plays from 4-7pm each day; Dave plays from 7-10pm. Awesome for Marcus, and should be a great time. Not knowing how close I will be able to get I rented a Canon 300mm f/2.8L IS lens from Glazers… should make for a very fun weekend!
Here’s a couple of fun around-the-house photos. Check out the shallow dof at that focal length. =]
that lens is enormous. throw a lens hood on that and its 6 inches longer. You could probably beat some one up with that setup! hah
[…] As mentioned, I spent Labor Day weekend down at the Gorge photographing Marcus Eaton. He played the side stage at the Dave Matthews concert Fri-Sun, three hours each day. It was a crazy-cool weekend, with beautiful weather and lots of sites. Marcus & Jim put on a great show… oh, and so did Dave Matthews. A few photos from the weekend, more on my Flickr & Marcus’ MySpace. […]
